So very saddened to hear from Alex and Vince today of Bev's passing. I had called to speak with her and never heard back, so this news has really shocked me.

There was, and is, no one like Bev - her generosity of spirit and her level of kindness was immeasurable. I consider myself fortunate to have known her as well as her children, Alex and Sophie, when they attended Athlone and Bruce schools

The laughs we all had together in working with Bev at the schools will never be forgotten and always cherished.

My sincere sympathies to Vince, Sophie, and Alex. These messages and memories , as well as the marvelous and touching memorial/video. are a testimonial to the essence of our wonderful, irepressive BEV!

Although I hadn't spoken to Bev in some time, I thought about her often as I drove past her house on my way to work each day at Athlone School. I had the pleasure of teaching her daughter and always enjoyed chatting with Bev at the school. She had an infectious smile and laugh. She was an amazing mom to her two children and was one of the best parents I've had the pleasure of working with.

She will be missed by so many. Thinking of her family at this most difficult time.

Bev's warmt and compassion as my supervisor at Greenhoven, and later as my coordinator at Southall and Belmont , created a work environment that was both nurturing and inspiring. Her unexpected departure left me feeling sad and empty, but the memories of her kindness and dedication will forever remain etched in my heart. ❤️❤️❤️

It was heart - wrenching to hear of Bev's passing on. Bev was more than my coordinator. She put a human face to all the challenges people faced and made staff special and cared for. Bev walked with me and held my hand during my health challenges and that lessened my emotional burden. I knew I would expect a medium decaf coffee with a shot of mint every Wednesday. It was so sad that I couldn't reciprocate when you also needed the assurance that you are cherished. I will miss your

" Oh Teclar " . Fly high and rest in paradise Bev.

So sorry for your loss. I knew Bev during Lunchtime Supervisoring at Athlone. So many laughs...like the time she got pooped on by a squawking bird she just yelled at. Not funny, but a wee bit hilarious. The kids at Athlone loved her. The memories and laughs and tears you all shared will help you through this difficult time.🙏

Always a happy and smiling face every time I would walk by,

I am shocked and saddened to hear that Beverley's passing.

My family and I had the pleasure of knowing her when our sister Norberta (Guggi Hartmann) was being cared for by Winnserv. Beverly and her wonderful team became part of our family We send our sincere condolences to Beverley's family and her friends and colleagues.

It was a pleasure working with Bev at Winnserv, mostly Twain residence. I got to know her mother as well. Bev was kind and funny. We enjoyed the odd Chinese food meal together in St. James and had many deep conversations. This is a lovely tribute! My sincere sympathy and prayers Vincent, Sophie and Alex.

Bev, so many memories. Working with you and watching you help the people you served live their best life was truly a blessing, and there were so many lives you enriched with your caring and dedication. Some great times we shared, singing and dancing with you, Kristy, Carina, and Jonathan in the office, as well as some tears and great hugs over the losses of people you served. A special song between us that had us both holding our sides. You always left the office with a "Luv ya". So my friend, "Luv ya". You are already missed. Vince, Sophie and Alex, please find comfort in your memories of an incredible woman.

Bev, it was a pleasure to knowing you. You're not just a boss but also a friend. Can't explain the feeling knowing you're not with us anymore. Cherish the days that you're our coordinator.

I am still in shock hearing of Bevs passing. Not even sure where to start. Bev was my coordinator for many years. Even though she was my boss, it never felt like she put herself above those doing the daily in and out grind in the homes. She knew her team and supported us. She understood the job we did and took the time to get to know us. I will miss her calls to check up on the house her asking "whats shaking" and my go to response "i am just living the dream Bev" then we both chuckle 🤣 I really could go on for paragraphs talking about our relationship, i will just sum it up to she loved and was loved. You will be missed Bev until we meet again.

How lucky I was the day you showed up for a job interview at Winnserv all those many, many years ago! Countless stories, good conversations, gossip and laughs over the years. I remember meeting your mom and how much you loved each other. You proudly bringing Sophie and Alex to the office. You didn't always have confidence in yourself but with encouragement you successfully tackled a lot of goals. What a huge hole you have left in so many hearts. Vince, Sophie and Alex, Bev will continue to love and protect you.

Beverly, lives were made better upon meeting and connecting with you. You were a great mentor to me and always made me feel send and heard. There are not enough words in any language that I know that can express the sorrow and loss I feel knowing you are not on Earth anymore, but there is some peace knowing you have been so loving and is so loved in return. Every time I get Tim Hortons I will think of our coffee dates.

Great job in this compilation, lovely to see. It's a heartbreaking time for you Vincey and Alex and Sophie, So very sorry for all of you. Hugs to you.

Bevvy, my friend. My heart aches knowing I won't hear your voice and be able to call you for a chat. You truly were a "hoot" and my god did we laugh! The memories I have with you I'll cherish forever. You loved to tell me any chance you had, "if I was born in '92, we'd be like this🤞🏻" but we were anyways. 25 years apart in age but my gosh we clicked. You were such a support to me but also to anyone you loved. That was just you. I miss you and I'll always miss you. Rest in peace my beautiful cookie.

Bev and I met at Sigfussen nursery, bonding through our children. We would chat every day at drop off and pick up, and sometimes we would sit and share a coffee and some laughs. after Preschool our kids went in different directions but we would meet up at musical theatre or random places and pick up right where we left off. I am lucky to have had her in my life to call a friend. My thoughts and prayers are with you and the kids. She loved you all so much ♥️

I don't even know where to begin - I am at a loss for words. My heart breaks for you, for Vince and for Sophie & Alex.

I hope you know that I love you tremendously pupil. You were the best friend, an absolute peach to spend time with, you have a laugh that is contagious and one I will miss forever. I think the best ones are the ones where we couldn't breathe and it felt like I had done 100 sit ups.....hew hew hew. I will never forget you my dear friend, and will think of you often

You can now rest in peace, without any pain. Heaven gained the sweetest angel xoxoxoxo

Words cannot describe the life I have shared with you. 52 years of friendship speaks volumes as to who you were. A beautiful soul, inside and out. I love you Beav. You were the best. I miss you and can't believe you're gone. Till we meet again my love xoxoxoxoxoxoxox 💋💋

condolence to you and your family my dear cousin and im sorry for your lost, God bless her soul

What a beautiful tribute to a beautiful soul. I cannot imagine the heartbreak your family is experiencing, our deepest condolences. Hold your memories close. I will forever think of Bev when I sit in our front chairs to enjoy a coffee. She had a special seat here and a special place in our hearts. Rest in peace Bev, we will truly miss you.
